3515 WETMORE AVE 2018-01-02 MF Import

Feb. 12, 1968 1•ir. Frank Woltring Planning Dept. , City Hall Everett, Wash. 98201. Dear Sir: In regard to my buildings at 3515 Wetmore, I would like to inform you that they have never been removed from Snohomish County tax roll:,. Thir in ahparcn if contrary to your information obtained from the Assessor's office, but the simple truth is that they are assessed at s100. In view of the current 25% ratio -this reflects a value of 16400. in the eyes of the assessor. No doubt he could raise this at any time, but such an actior, might be dificult to justify on an improvement basis. I would interpret such an aatio n as harrassment in an attempt to joggle me into a sudden decidion that I might later regret. I am not unconcerned about the appearance of my property at this location, biit I doubt that.any great esthetic improvement would accrue to this neighborhood if I removed these buildings tomorrow. I recognize an appreciate your past lieniency with my problem, but I also think that I am still entitled to the same continued consideration because vandalismiandi not my effort or lack of it -has made my property slightly less acceptable than nearby unit::. This is an area Droblem to Everett, not individual. I think that with the coming improvement in �he weather, I can at least match the decor of the neighborhood with the idea of trying to gain a little time to explore the poss- ibility of properly developing this property. Would some paint on the house enhance the appearance in ,your opinion? I have no present plane of code compliance or occupancy. Your , Arthur A. Jo son.
